Christmas in Chicago, 2014

By Hanne Beube

We are looking forward to seeing many of you for the 21st Annual Danish Christmas Service or “Dansk Julegudstjeneste”.

The date is set for Saturday, December 13th, 2014 at 3 pm.  We meet at Edison Park Lutheran Church, 6626 N. Oliphant Ave. Chicago.

This beautiful church is located close to The Danish Home. Website: http://www.edisonparkchurch.com/ – *Oliphant Ave. intersects NW Highway, is East of Canfield, North of Devon and West of Harlem.

Pastor Karen Knutson will officiate, and as always, The Bjornson Male Chorus will sing during the service.  You will have the opportunity to participate in singing the lovely Danish Christmas Hymns of your childhood.

Following the service, we meet for fellowship and goodies, provided by the Danish Sisterhood Dagmar Lodge #4 of Chicago.

This is a wonderful way to get into the Christmas Spirit and meet many old and new friends. See you there!
